divyang

(India) A disabled person.

(euphemistic, often, _, humorously, or, pejoratively so, except, _, India, and, Philippines) Disabled or handicapped.

Indian derogatory slang for an unsophisticated villager or rural person, roughly equivalent to 'hick', 'bumpkin', or 'redneck'. The term is used by urban Indians to mock those perceived as naive, backward, or out of touch with city life. It carries class contempt and urban-rural condescension, and can be quite cutting when aimed at someone trying to navigate an unfamiliar urban environment.

A word used across South Asia — particularly in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh — for a medical clinic or dispensary. Derived from Persian, it combines dava (medicine) with khana (house), literally meaning 'medicine house.' A davakhana can range from a small village dispensary to a modest urban clinic, and the word carries a practical, no-frills feel. It's deeply embedded in everyday speech across the subcontinent, used casually the way English speakers might say 'the clinic' or 'the doctor's.'
